Charles III
I searched for a mention of this article in the archives but I couldn't find any which is surprising. The article passed a GA review in May 2023 thanks to User:Tim O'Doherty's efforts and has garnered millions of views over the years. I'd be glad if one of the participants at this project could verify this and thus extend the award to the nominator. Cheers. Keivan.f Talk 23:50, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

My participation here
I believe in recognizing quality improvements to the most-read articles in this little corner of Wikipedia. However, I feel that this is becoming more difficult and demanding than it has to be. So I am going to step back a bit and will no longer respond to a request if another editor has already responded to it. I'd also appreciate not being pinged here for simple non-urgent requests. Thanks. – Reidgreg (talk) 04:57, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
